Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1645: Chapter 1644: Liu Shuangcan?

According to the records in the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book, when this Demon Sect Secret Technique is cultivated to this extent, it requires devouring people with a yin constitution, the power would have already reached a formidable level, likely even more powerful than someone like Xue Nu.

Su Yang has already found it very difficult to cultivate to this realm. However, the person’s power now is not much lesser than others either.

The crucial point is that for this person to reach this level of cultivation, who knows how many people have been devoured. This person could truly be described as a demon.

If this person isn’t dealt with this time, who knows how many more people will fall victim to his evil hands if he continues to devour.

Half an hour later, the people who went out to investigate finally brought back news. Another family in the Capital City had a girl abducted, also with a yin constitution. However, the girl from their family had been abducted for several hours already.

Once this news came back, everyone was once again shocked. Undeniably, all these facts proved that Su Yang’s suspicion was completely correct.

Su Yang had someone look into the situation of this family; in the Capital City, their power ranked very low, practically an unnoticeable family. The girl’s position in the family was also quite ordinary, so after the girl was abducted, the family merely sent some people to search symbolically for a while, and when they couldn’t find her, they gave up. Thus, this family didn’t provide any valuable information.

Soon, more news came trickling in. Two hours later, messages about the abductions of six more girls had come in.

Calculating this, the person had already abducted eight girls with yin constitutions. And this is only the number in the Capital City, already close to nine.

This situation unnerved the Family Head and the others, because now it’s already eight. If more people are abducted, and they still haven’t tracked down this person, he might manage to gather all nine, and that would be really dangerous.

Su Yang remained the calmest person; he gathered the forces associated with the abducted members and carefully inquired about the demon.

Soon, Su Yang received some very valuable information.

Some people from these families had witnessed this demon’s appearance. Based on their descriptions, Su Yang suddenly realized that this demon seemed very similar to someone he had met before.

These people detailed the demon’s appearance, and integrating all this information, Su Yang found the demon’s appearance very similar to Liu Shuangcan, whom he had seen before in the Southern Six Provinces.

Liu Shuangcan was once the top expert in Handong Province, but when Su Yang was in Handong Province, this person tried to deal with Su Yang but was ultimately defeated by him, with both his hands and feet crippled.

Later, the Smiling Monk appeared and took Liu Shuangcan away, but Liu Shuangcan was already a crippled person by then. Thus, Su Yang never considered him worth worrying about.

Yet now, hearing what these people say, Su Yang couldn’t shake the feeling that this demon must be Liu Shuangcan!

But the problem is, Liu Shuangcan was crippled; how could he possibly have recovered?

Furthermore, although Liu Shuangcan’s cultivation of the Secret Technique was powerful, Su Yang knew very well that he wasn’t practicing such a Devouring Technique. If this person was indeed Liu Shuangcan, where did he obtain this Devouring Technique?

Su Yang was filled with doubts, as his initial aim was to investigate the demon’s location. Now knowing that the demon was highly likely to be Liu Shuangcan, Su Yang’s mind started pondering over other matters.

Yet, pondering these things now had no meaning. Currently, the most crucial thing was to find this demon. Only by finding him could they clarify everything!

Su Yang further questioned the people from these forces, also informing them about the five people who had died here. Eventually, they did manage to identify those five people’s identities from among the forces.

These five people were either captured while encircling or tracking the demon. In the end, all five were seized and devoured right here, inciting the furious indignation of the forces, who all fervently wanted to slay the demon.

Su Yang paid more attention to comprehensively analyzing the clues about the demon’s escape route provided by these forces. Finally, Su Yang roughly determined the possible location the demon might have headed to—the western part of the Capital City.

Considering the frequency of his acts when abducting those yin constitution girls, coupled with the forces’ locations and distances. Putting it all together, it could be analyzed where this person would choose to place these girls.

After all, these forces weren’t centralized, and he abducted the girls one by one. So, he must find a central location to place these girls. Based on these times and distances, naturally, one could discern the general area where he hid the girls.

Subsequently, the task of searching for this person was handed over to these major forces. They dispatched a large number of people to the location Su Yang mentioned, carrying out a carpet search to find the demon.

Su Yang also went to the western part of the Capital City, where he mainly stayed on the alert. As soon as someone discovered the demon’s whereabouts, he would rush over to support them. After all, the demon was extremely powerful; these forces, although formidable, and with many family members, still found it difficult to handle the demon!

This search took more than an hour; finally, the people discovered a secluded, uninhabited village nearby.

As they walked through the village, they found that there was not a single person there, not even the slightest sound.

However, the village still appeared clean, and each house’s entrance looked neat, clearly having been cleaned not long ago.

This situation puzzled everyone because clearly, people had lived in this village not too long ago. But the question was, why was there no one now?

Of course, people couldn’t believe that the entire village was out at this time. Even during work hours, it was impossible for there to not be a single person in an entire village.

With this doubt in mind, they searched the village and indeed, in the last small building, found the abducted girls.

There were a total of eight girls, all locked up here. Though these girls appeared somewhat haggard, they were alive, and that was the most crucial thing.

Upon receiving the news, Su Yang immediately rushed to the village. As soon as he entered, he was astonished, frowning deeply, and said in a deep voice, ”This demon, he actually devoured the entire village!”
